The Therapy Garden combines the expertise and talents of experienced staff, trustees and volunteers. The charity is indebted to our patrons; actress and local resident, Dame Penelope Keith DBE, DL and Young Horticulturist of the Year 2013, Jez Stamp, and we appreciate their ongoing support.
OUR PATRONS
I was delighted to be asked to become a Patron of the Therapy Garden, especially as I am a gardener at heart. I have seen at first hand from similar projects, how those with special needs, be they physical or mental, can benefit from a close contact with the earth and nature. I wish this project and all those involved every success.
Dame Penelope Keith DBE, DL
Gardening is my passion. Working with plants gives me a tremendous sense of wellbeing and perspective. I hope my knowledge and experience will benefit the fantastic work already done by the Therapy Garden which shows the power that gardening has to help everyone, whatever their needs.
